Outlook 2000 crashed. where/what is old email/contact data file?

[Guest]

Can someone please help my find my old contacts/emails. My IT guy said the
entire hard drive was saved and is now the D drive so I should be able just
to import the data files if I knew what or where it was. Thank you so much!

Just where it is depends on what operating system was on the drive. For
WIndows 2000 or XP, it should be in D:\Documents and Settings\username\Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook (a hidden folder). Look for a
file whose extension is ".pst".

Thanks Brian, pretty much what I thought, but it's not there.. I was
originally looking for the documents and setting folder, but it's still not
to be found...

Thanks for the confirmation that I am not insane

Have you enabled hidden files and folders?
